A honey farmer in Nigeria got stung while harvesting honey from bees despite being fully kitted.
The beekeeper’s suit is made up of three parts – a hooded veil, a full-body overall, and gloves to prevent the bees from having access to the human body.
Sadly, the video posted by @fauzziyah on TikTok showed her in distress even with her suit as she was being stung by a bee.

The farmer narrated that she usually gets stung by the bees but has kept at it because of her desire to extract honey.
On that particular occasion, even though she was in pain as she exclaimed towards the end of the video, she couldn’t undress because it’ll expose her to more stings.
